Lakers, Cavs a Battle of First Place


Martin Luther King day brought us a great matchup between the two first place teams in basketball. With the Cavs beating the Lakers5 straight. After Kobe Bryant dislocated his finger in the first quarter the Lakers just pushed the Cavs around in the paint with 17 rebounds beating them down by 17. But this was a game to remember Kobe says it all.



"It's an historical day. To have MLK day be today and the celebration tomorrow, it's a special week. I'm glad we're not playing tomorrow. I get a chance to watch it and be with my family. My kids are obviously too young to understand it, but we're going to document it, save all the clippings, TiVo everything, and when they get older, explain it to them. It's pretty cool." -Kobe Bryant
